Design Challenge
When executing our brand, The researched local restaurants with ethnic styles and visited each one to gain insight. However, The team faced the challenge of how to represent the cultures of the six major ethnic groups.

Only then can capture the essence of each culture in our illustrations and bring out their unique flavors.
Research

Inspiration
There are many restaurants that serve traditional food in Malaysia. However, the overall design theme with a symbolic representation of the culture in a restaurant is rare. In order to solve this problem, we first developed a distinctive brand name.
Project Duration
